Capsular bending ring to prevent posterior capsule opacification: 2 year follow-up

The capsular bending ring significantly reduced anterior capsule fibrosis and shrinkage as well as PCO. The ring may be useful in patients who are at high risk of developing eye complications from capsule opacification that require Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy, in those expected to have vitreoretinal surgery and photocoagulation, and in cases of pediatric cataract.
